My thoughts about the children's literature that I read which hopefully help my K-5 students and parents find a great book

Amina's Voice
This was a relatively brief, easy read about a Muslim family living in the U.S. in the present day and some of the struggles that they go through. The main character is Amina, a sixth grader. She is adjusting to middle school and is jealous as her best friend adds a new girl to their group. I found the story a bit boring until the end, where a tragedy happens. I do think reading this will enlighten some students about the struggles of Muslims in today's United States. (FIC KHA)
